My path this month was a winding one. I started loose and organic. Sketchy. Day four found me heavy into digital patterns and textures. That one was a lot of work. I managed to regain a looser feel at times. But often I was much more stylized than I had planned to be.
I struggled with abstracts. I refused to give up though. I did ten. Triple that if I count all the failures. Of those, there are only two I consider very good. Days 9 & 22. Even though it is slightly goofy, I also like day 17, the Kachina. I didn’t know what I was gonna do with that mess of a blob. 😆
Having considered my favorites for the month, I am having a hard time selecting two for the group board. Many of my favorites were chosen as much for what I learned, as for how they look. And I have to laugh, that my go to yellow was only prominent in 6 paintings. I know Val is thrilled. 😆 Shades of pink and warm white ruled this month.
September was a challenging month. Sometimes frustrating. I learned something new each day, with each piece. Learning is always awesome, in my book. Score! 😆

As always, the connections, and conversations with friends made the month JOYFUL! Seeing their work each day is so inspiring! Stay tuned! The group gallery will be ready soon!
You had a fabulous month. I so appreciate all the work you put into the gathering. And…I’m sure you know I would have had no problem selecting a favorite! Hugssss…
Haha. Well, I have a problem selecting a favorite of yours, Chandra! Haha 🙂
What a gorgeous month of Chandra blooms! FAB-U-LOUS! I love them all. 🙂
I’m so thrilled you were able to join us. I don’t know how you accomplish so much!
Congratulations on your bountiful, beautiful month, Chandra!
Bug hugs right back! xoxo 🙂
Sheila, I stand in awe of your leading and fully participating in 30-Day Creative Gathering 9.2023—such a gift to yourself and others! I’m looking at your board of 12 favorites and it just SINGS with vibrancy and creativity. Your love of learning shines through everything you create : )
BRAVA! BRAVA! BRAVA!
Thank you for that, Dotty. So very kind of you, my friend. 🙂
It’s always a joy to see my art through your eyes. 🙂
Happy creating, Dotty!
Ha, ha. ha! I did notice that there were fewer yellow pieces this month and I appreciate that – lol. I also liked all the patterns you came up with for so many of your pieces. As for abstract, I think (like me) you want them to ‘be’ something which sort of negates the abstract idea but I guess that is ok too. It has been a challenging month and I think you aced it!
Haha. 🙂 Maybe you are right about that, Val. I will keep trying. Thank you Val.
I think we all had a fabulous month! See you in February! 🙂
